Planting Duchess GreenAt the beginning of November 2024, we started to plant Duchess Green. The first planting day concentrated on bulbs. We have about 1200 daffodil bulbs donated by local people in addition to 586 local daffodil varieties supplied by Scamps, 100 fritillaries and 90 camassias. On 3 November, 19 volunteers planted over half these bulbs. Weather was kind but despite recent rain, the ground was still hard for bulb planters and led to a few blisters. Luckily there was tea/coffee, cake and biscuits too sustain us.
